      Hi Carl. I bought a copy of Finale’s PrintMusic, but I wasted my money after I discovered some bugs with it.
      The software I have used for transposing tunes (250+) over many hundreds of hours, is free and available from.

      Crescendo works well if you want to quickly put down a tune on the PC and print it out.
      You can play the tune through with one of many different instrument voices, so you may even use it to compose.
      One can also create multiple parts with different voices, so its quite fun to play around with.

      Thanks for the tune, I’ll check it out now with Crescendo.

      We used to dream of free notation software! – LOL

        Hi Jeff, what was the problem you had with Finale print software?

        The only reason i ask, is since then i switched to using an apple mac and had to buy a later version of finale print software to work on the mac.

        I’ve had no problems with finale, bearing in mind its not the full blown finale music software.

        If you can remember the problem, i’d like to see if i can replicate it on my version.

            Hi sxpoet

            I had entered a piece of music which had multiple keys. It didn’t transpose some of the notes correctly, which were connected together by ties.

            There is a similar problem with Crescendo regarding grace notes. One has to first change them to ordinary notes before transposing, otherwise they remain just where they are in the bar – but this software version is free so I’m quite happy to tolerate minor issues.
